“What do you want me to do for you?” Matthew 20: 32
Jesus was on the way to Jericho and as usual there was a crowd following Him. Two blind men were sitting beside the road and when they heard Jesus was passing, they called out to Him, “Lord have mercy on us.” Jesus heard them and stopped and asked them, “What do you want me to do for you?” “We want to see,” they answered. And Jesus, in pity, touched their eyes and their eyes were opened and they could see.
When I read that story last week, it seemed that the question Jesus asked them, “What do you want me to do for you?” became a question He was asking me. “What do you want me to do for you?”
Last week, when I was facing a problem I couldn’t fix or met a challenge too big for me – Jesus would ask me, “What do you want me to do for you?” I would stop what I was doing and tell Him what I wanted Him to do. And He would provide a solution.
Dorothy emailed me one morning and said they were leaving for Bolivia with a ministry team the next day, but the ticket for one member of the team had gone missing. Jesus’ question came to my mind and in a reply to her I wrote a prayer. “Jesus, we want you to find the ticket.” Thirty minutes later, Dorothy emailed and said the ticket was found.
Today and every day, Jesus is saying to you, “What do you want me to do for you?” What will your answer be?
Jesus, thank you for caring about our needs and wants. Thank you, for asking us what you can do for us. Thank you for solving our problems. Amen.

That God may make every crooked path in my life straight, heal my sister of the cancer she’s been diagnosed with and chart a perfect course for me and my family in all our endeavors. Amen
If I found myself in a fix, I don’t wait for Jesus to ask me what I want. I would straight away ask Him to solve my problem. I am writing this comment is because, He solved the problem I was facing with my computer. We can straight away seek His intervention when you really is handicapped. He fulfills, willingly and gladly, our need without delay. Praise the Lord. Nothing is impossible for Him! Amen!
Thank you for this inspiring devotional.
God bless you and keep you.
I am continually amazed when people tell me they do not pray for God to be involved in the small parts of their lives. I cannot imagine my Heavenly Father not being by my side in every thing I do and every place I go. I speak with him with every problem from finding my missplaced keys to praising and worshiping him in the beauty of the day. He is my all in all and I cannot imagine what my life would be without his presence in it.
